Brought together the chassis/xaxle/motor with the interior. Beauty cover was painted flat red with a semi-gloss clear. the 'braided' fuel line was also added to the cover and attached to the fire wall. The decals for the covers really sets off the engine!

Some more decals were added to the top of the radiator. Also used a PE 'crossed-flag' on the air box inlet -- hard to see. added a PE front for the radiator --which will be seen thru the lower front grill. And did a test fit to the body!

Nice use of Texture and Color in the interior, I like to see that because too many interiors are just Flat Black and Plain even with some added detail they can just look very toy like. Not Yours, Great Work! Chris

Chris -- Thx for the comments! Onto the wheels -- Painted the Plamoz Cup Wheels with Alclad Polished Aluminum, then painted the wheel with Vallejo Gunmetal --rubbed off the gunmetal over the spokes to get an aluminum highlight on the 'machined faced' wheels. Also had Speedway decals make some very small 'Corvette' decals for the lip of the wheel --very hard to see --but it's there. Also added valve stems and the 60th center cap logo decals. Tires were from Ukranian Scale Auto, which will be seen on the finished model.
